Definitions

Clear words mean clear expectations. Here is exactly what the labels mean.

P1 — Critical
Site down, data loss, or security incident affecting all users.
P2 — Major
Major feature broken, payments failing, or a regression blocking a key workflow.
P3 — Minor
Small bug, content update, performance niggle, or a routine question.
Business hours
Monday to Friday, 09:00–18:00 UK, excluding UK bank holidays.

Site we did not build?

You can still join the Care Plan. We run a one-off review first (£250, or three hours from a Maintain or Grow bundle) where we document the stack, dependencies, access, and risks. That gives the ongoing plan a known starting state and avoids surprises in month two.

Inheriting an unfinished project? Email us and we will look at it.

Reviews typically take 3–5 working days. The SLA clock starts the day the review signs off.

Onboarding in three steps

From signup to first health report in a single calendar month.

  1. Signup + Direct Debit

    You pick a tier, complete the signup form, and we send a Direct Debit mandate. First month is prorated from the start date.

  2. Access + audit

    We collect hosting, DNS and repo access. For sites we did not build, we run a one-off review before the SLA begins.

  3. Plan starts

    Monitoring goes live, monthly hours start counting, and your first health report lands at the end of month one.

Business hours

No out-of-hours cover: anything raised out of hours is picked up on the next business day.

Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00 UK, excluding bank holidays

Billing terms

  • Monthly Direct Debit, in advance. We are not VAT registered, so no VAT is added. If that changes we will tell you a month before.
  • First month is prorated from the start date.
  • Cancel any time with 30 days written notice. No early-termination fee.
  • Bundled hours do not roll over. Use them or lose them within the calendar month.
  • Overage hours are billed at £95 per hour, agreed before work starts.
  • Price changes are only made at renewal, with at least 30 days notice.

Frequently asked questions

Do unused hours roll over?

No — bundled hours are use it or lose it within the calendar month. That keeps the price flat and the workload predictable. If you know you need more, we will quote an ad-hoc engagement instead.

What if my site was built by someone else?

You can still join — we just need a one-off review first: £250, or three hours of your Maintain or Grow bundle, where we document the stack, risks and access before signing the SLA. That way the Care Plan starts from a known state, not a guess.

Do you provide out-of-hours cover?

No — we work Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00 UK, excluding UK bank holidays. Anything raised out of hours is picked up on the next business day.

How does billing work?

Monthly Direct Debit, in advance. You can cancel any time with 30 days notice. We do not run mid-contract price rises — any change is communicated at renewal.

Can I upgrade or downgrade?

Yes — at the start of any calendar month. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades take effect the following month. Tell us a week before the switch so we can ready the new tier.

What is not included?

New feature builds and redesigns are quoted separately. The Care Plan covers steady-state care: monitoring, patching, content updates within your bundled hours, and clear escalation when something goes wrong.
